The Institute of Information and Computational Technologies organized, at a high scientific level, one of the six international scientific conferences held within the framework of the congress — the international conference “Inverse and Ill-Posed Problems: Theory, Applications, and Artificial Intelligence”

From April 3 to 7, 2026, the First Congress of Mathematicians of Kazakhstan was held in the city of Shymkent at M. Auezov South Kazakhstan University. The congress brought together leading scientists, researchers, international experts, university lecturers, and school teachers in the fields of mathematics, mechanics, and information technology, with a total attendance of about 500 mathematicians.

The grand opening ceremony was attended by Sayasat Nurbek – Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan; Bakytzhan Zhumagulov – Academician, President of the Mathematical Society of the Turkic World and the Kazakhstan Mathematical Society, Darhan Akhmed-Zaki – Chairman of the Board and Rector of M. Auezov South Kazakhstan University and others.

The Institute of Information and Computational Technologies organized, at a high scientific level, one of the six international scientific conferences held within the framework of the congress — the international conference “Inverse and Ill-Posed Problems: Theory, Applications, and Artificial Intelligence”. The purpose of the conference was to bring together leading scholars and young researchers conducting scientific work in the field of inverse and ill-posed problems in natural sciences, artificial intelligence, biomedicine, finance, and economics, in order to exchange experience, discuss the latest results and current trends in the development of numerical methods for solving inverse problems, as well as their practical applications. The moderators of the plenary sessions were the co-chairs of the Program Committee of the International Scientific Conference, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, professor S.I. Kabanikhin and Academician of NEA RK, professor M.A. Bektemesov.

The conference program included more than 70 presentations, among them 16 plenary talks. Scholars representing Turkey, Russia, Hungary, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, and other countries arrived at the event and took an active part in it. Participants also came from the cities of Samarkand, Termez, Tashkent, Osh, Novosibirsk, Sochi, Yekaterinburg, Baku, Budapest, and others. Scholars from Almaty, Astana, Semey, Shymkent, Turkistan, Aktobe, Karaganda, Ust-Kamenogorsk, and Arkalyk also participated. Overall, the new scientific reports presented at the plenary and sectional sessions demonstrated the high organizational level of the conference and the active engagement of participants in the theory of inverse and ill-posed problems and the broad application of artificial intelligence.
